NIck galnced over as Emily talked to Ktonos and looked back at Norse.
"Who is this brute of a tank?" Nick asked stunned at ktonos's size.
"Miss. Stirling, I was told that the Railway could use some muscle power nad strong backs tohelp out. THat and i am presently in the market lookin for work. I was wondering if ther was something i could do?" Ktonos said politely as he studied teh smaller panther. "I was referred by my wife, Tina Starfire."

"Never mind that now, lad, right now, I need your help." Norse interrupted.
"Admiral Starfire?" Emily briefly raised an eyebrow. "Well, we could use a guy like you. Do you know anything about boilerwork?"

NIck nodded, but kept an eye on Ktonos. THe Naga's large size made him a little nervous.
"How can i help?" Nick asked Norse.
"Well ma'am, I am afriad i don't, but i am a fast learner and willing to start with grunt work." Ktonos offered.

"If possible, I need you to find out exactly what your father is up to," replied Norse. "Although I am in the Admiralty, we're completely seperate from the UACSC, and I need, how shall we say, an informant."
"No matter," Emily nodded. "The pay is 200 simoleons per week, including free food. There isn't a set time for when you start or finish, just so long as you do a maximum six hours daily. OK?"

Nick lowered his head.
"I hate being a spy." He grumbled and looked at Emily as she talked with Ktonos. "But if it will help the Railway."
"Only six hours? Are all jobs that light?" Ktonos asked amazed.

"That's a good lad!" Norse patted Nick on the back. "All I want you to do is try and get some information from your father to see what he's planning. I'll pay you handsomely if you agree."
"Not necessarily," replied Emily. "Once you start on the promotion ladder, the jobs can get a little tougher, but nothing to worry about."

"I'll do it." Nick said quietly and offered a handshake to Norse to sign the deal.
"Very well then ma'am. Are there any special qualities i need for this job?" Ktonos asked nodding.

Norse shook Nicks' hand and smiled.
"Only a healthy amount of strength," Emily replied. "You'll need to learn a little about working with steam engines, but that's not an academic study; you'll learn that when you start the job."

NIck galnced over at Ktonos again and leaned in to whisper to Norse.
"That guy looks like he could tear apart a Baboon Counter Bot." Nick muttered looking at Ktonos's heavily muscled body. "What race is he anyways?"
Ktonos nodded.
"So i take it this means i am working for you now?" He asked calmly. "IANd trust me, I have more than enough strength for your company to take advantage of."

"I think he is a Naga, but I could be wrong." Norse whispered back.
"Good to hear it," smiled Emily. "You can start tomorrow, and we look forward to seeing you."

"What teh hell is a Naga? Aren't they that race that died out centuries ago?" NIck asked baffled.
Ktonos nodded and offered a hand shake to Emily.
"I will be there shortly after sunrise then, Miss. Stirling." He said smiling.

"Search me," Norse answered. "I'm not a historian."
Emily shook Ktonos' hand and bidded him good day.

Nick watched as the giant Naga turned and left the room. He walked up to Emily.
"Frell, he towered over you!" Nick remarked as Ktonos left the room.

"Well, excuse me!" Tina Greydon nearly screamed in sarcasm as the giant Naga left the UAC Air Marshal's room and walked past her while she waited to see Rear Admiral Norse. She leaned back against the nearest wall afterwards; after seeing Dude, Where's My Pepsi? and staying for a day at some hostel under 'heavy' guard, the UAC apparently decided that Tina could now walk around without close surveillance.
Of course, this did mean she now had a tag on her wrist that told the UAC where she was at any and all times.
(Tina hoped it wouldn't blow up when she took it off.)
That, and a letter of recommendation to one Air Marshal Norse of the UAC Air Force. Tina waited. Was this really the place where a highly-ranked Admiral of an entire navy (or somewhere along those lines, Tina surmised) had an office?

OOC: Yes, Norse is an Air Marshal, but in comparison to Navy ranks, he would be a Vice-Admiral. If you recall, I also said that Norse was an exempt from the Admiralty.
I don't like telling people off, but I wish you'd read the messages first before posting.
